Has anyone used the Tube Amp Doctor black plate KT-88 in a home audio amp?
I have several guitar player friends who swear by this tube as being one of the finest sounding tubes they have ever used.

Guitar amps are all about carefully crafted distortion, audio amps are all about accurate reproduction, so advice from a guitar amp perspective is unreliable for an audio amp.
The actual answer is to measure the curves or distortion for the various alternative valves and pick the best behaved oncs - not very practical for most of us, but someone may have done this. Note that noise performance may be more important for an audio amp than a guitar amp.
Or in short anecdotal evidence from a different application isn't worth as much as measurements from the actuall area of application.
